  • Interested in learning more about Retinol? Retinol is basically Vitamin A and can be used to decrease fine lines, clear pores and fight the effects of aging on the skin. Check out this video that I shot for Joyus and their Smart Beauty series. You can also find it on DrPimplePopper.com and on Joyus.com!

    You can use retinols at any age people. Before it was for acne, now for anti-aging.

      Lesedi Moalosi the only thing is dryness on the skin, but overall no side effects. Get a good moisturizer that fits for your skin & to help with the dry patchy skin. Also, never forget to put on your SUNSCREEN!! ✨

      @Mai-id4fw 3 года назад +23

      *Don’t forget to put sunscreen on because Retinol can also cause your skin to become a little more sensitive to the sun but even without the use of retinol you should always wear sunscreen to help with Aging and dark spot.

      Joey's third chin She meant it's OK to use Retinol and go out in the sun as there's no adverse reactions to that, but she recommendeds use of Retinol at night as the sun deactivates Retinol and by using it in the day, there's no benefit since the Retinol is basically wasted and no longer of use when deactivated by the sun.

      Calm yo'self Cj L. You should be wearing at least SPF 30 daily if you want to prevent wrinkles and ESPECIALLY if you used retinoids or retinols. The UVA and UVB rays from sunlight causes cancer, bro. You get enough vitamin D from your diet and your medical professional can advise you on supplemental therapy if you aren't getting enough from food.

      @javierantequeraquijano8542 3 года назад +3

      They are not conflicting mentions. Retinol should be applied at night because it is broken down by light, not because it's going to make you burn in the sun. She is right, retinol should be used year round, it does not cause photosensitivity contrary to popular belief, it just makes you dry so that sunburns that you could and would get anyway may be more itchy and may make you peel more.

    I'm currently using Retin-A 0.1%, if I apply and then use a moisturizer over it, does it dilute the strength?
